  • Publication number: 20250148628
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for generating depth information from one or more images. For example, a process can include obtaining a first depth map corresponding to an input comprising an image of the one or more images and a sparse depth measurement. A three-dimensional (3D) point cloud can be generated based on the first depth map and multi-scale visual features of the input, wherein the 3D point cloud includes a plurality of 3D point features uplifted from the multi-scale visual features. At least a portion of the plurality of 3D point features can be processed using one or more self-attention layers to generate refined 3D point features. A two-dimensional (2D) projection of the refined 3D point features can be generated and a second depth map can be generated based on the 2D projection of the refined 3D point features.
